.jpg "Philco 66S Tombstone (1935)") THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD! |
| The last of the 66 series, this very nice example of the Philco 66S is much harder to find than its more common older siblings. This one is a veteran of a previous restoration, and has a few minor mars and dings. I touched up the finish and put eight coats of lacquer over it. The result is a really quite attractive radio. Photographing these old radios is very difficult. The actual color is a little darker than what shows in these photos. All new capacitors, resistors as necessary, and a very good set of tubes have been installed for years of trouble-free service. Full alignment. The grille cloth and dial have been replaced. Unlike most five-tube radios, the shortwave is really quite good on this set. The speaker is perfect and the sound is outstanding. If you're a Philco collector I'm willing to bet you don't have one of these and I hope you will take a liking to this little gem. 16-1/2"H x 12-1/2"W x 9"D. |
